Many young babies have eruptions

ment of an absolute and powerful
blood purifier can effect cure; again
the ailment may be from contagion.
A. any rate, the safest plan is to at
once eradicate all poison from the
blood, no matter what the cause. So
wisely did Mr.. G. G. Key, one of the
most cultured men and intelligent
farmers of Alcora county, Miss. He
writes the following pointed testimony
of his experience:

After the Land Officials.

The Blackfoot Reporter is after the
land officials there with a sharp stick.
In its last issue it says:
A land office can do q great many
things and, can make itself felt in the
land. 1t can organize and systemat.
ically rob poor and needy settler,
under the guise of business; it car
lie about advertising rates, aud 90 of
on big drunk now and then, but il
can't make or break an establishe
newspaper by the withdrawal of q
little patronage, or starve the editor
out of town by any similar means.
This is evidently only beginning;
aud if the land officials "rob poor and
needy settlers under the guise of bus.
mess" and indulge in disgraceful
DRINKS, the Reporter needs only ,o
keep after them to secure their re-
moval.

She was the most beautiful mare 1
have ever seen, of pure Maid blood,
gray, with flea bitten spots, eyes too
large for her head, nostril thin and ex-
banded, the throat of a game cock, the
hair of her name and tail so fine and
soft that the most beautiful woman
might have been proud of such texture,
and her skin so thin and soft that the

she had been practiced upon with light

A Few GeoeraphicaI Notes.

The Orinoco is being explored by q
French traveller, NJ. Chaffanjon, who has
already discovered numerous errors in ex-
listing maps, and has made extensive sci
entific collections. The United States
fish commission is about to investigate
the fish bearing properties of the Kiu
Sawa, or Black Stream, of Japan, which,
crossing the Pacific in high latitude, is
said TO modify the temperature and eli
mate of Alaska and the Aleutian archi-
pelago in much the same manner as the
British climate is modified by the Gulf
Stream. Prof. Neumayer, of Hamburg,
anticipates that Antarctic explorations,
whose great Importance he urges, will
show that the south pole was a center OF
dispersion of animals and plants for the
southern hemisphere, as the north pole is
believed to have been for the northern

power of the Industrial school.

No one panacea of any reformer fits
the case or can alter existing conditions
Only what mans own soul sees as good
and wills to possess is of faintest value to
him. No attempt at cooperation can help
till the worker sees its power and use and
is willing to sacrifice where sacrifice is
necessary; to work and to wait in pa
tience. Such power is born in the indus
trial school in its largest sense; the school
that trains heart and mind as well as eye
and hand, and makes the child ready for
the best work its measure of power can
